To sail from the Bahamas to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, there are two Options. If you catch a nor´easter, you can sail east untill you reach Longitude 65 and then go straight south or you hop down the Islands wich is called the Thorny Path since you have to beat into wind and currents. We decided to try the L65 and headed out a few days before a good size nor´easter was expected. However, this one turned out to increase into a Non tropical Hurricane - nowadays called "BombCyclone" and we had to run away from it. We ended up motorsailing south for more than 400 natical Miles until we found shelter in lee of Long Cay - Acklins Islands. From there on we had to sail the thorny path down the Islands to continue on to Puerto Rico. On this journey we caught some realy epic moments with Humback whale encounters, Dolphins and a Mahi Mahi who had his best day ever while jumping off from our Hook and disappearing into the deep blue sea. We stopped in Luperon and Samana before we crossed the trecherous and infamous Mona Passage bound for Puerto Rico. Finally we made it to the IslaVieques where we had the first planed destination to get relief supplies to the suffering people. During Spring and early Summer we will continue on trough all the devasteded Islands after Hurricane Irma and Maria to help the people getting back to normal life again... but this will be the content of another Video. For now we just wanna share our experience along the tricky 1200 natical miles from the Bahamas to Puerto Rico. Enjoy and don´t forget to subscribe our channel.

Nassau's modern growth began in the late eighteenth century, with the influx of thousands of American Loyalists and their slaves to the Bahamas following the American Revolutionary War. Many of them settled in Nassau (then and still the commerce capital of the Bahamas) and eventually came to outnumber the original inhabitants.

Glen Cove (LIRR station)

Glen Cove station, (née Nassau), was built in 1895 at the behest of the "Gold Coast" millionaires such as the Pratts and J.P. Morgan who were looking for a more dignified station to disembark. This explains why this station was built roughly a mile from the Glen Street station. The picturesque station has been featured in several movies, including Sabrina,Hello Again, and several commercials. It can be found at the southwest corner of the Nassau Country Club, where maintenance crew members often enter and leave.

This station has the longest, straight waiting room bench on the LIRR - it is 35 feet long.

A little known secret is that behind the west waiting room wall there is a beautiful fireplace, which was once visible to customers in the waiting room.

No bus access is available for this station (unlike the nearby Glen Street station), however local taxicabs do stop there.

Offshore (novel)

Offshore (1979) is a novel by Penelope Fitzgerald. It won the Booker Prize for that year. It recalls her time spent on boats on the Thames in Battersea. The novel explores the liminality of people who do not belong to the land or the sea, but are somewhere in between. The epigraph, "che mena il vento, e che batte la pioggia, e che s'incontran con si aspre lingue" ("whom the wind drives, or whom the rain beats, or those who clash with such bitter tongues") comes from Canto XI of Dante's Inferno.

Offshore (hydrocarbons)

"Offshore", when used relative to hydrocarbons, refers to an oil, natural gas or condensate field that is under the sea, or to activities or operations carried out in relation to such a field. There are various types of platform used in the development of offshore oil and gas fields, and subsea facilities.

Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico (English /ˌpɔːrtəˈriːkoʊ/ or /ˌpwɛərtəˈriːkoʊ/;Spanish:[ˈpweɾto ˈriko], locally also[ˈpwelto ˈχiko; ˈʀ̥iko]), officially the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Spanish:Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico, literally the "Free Associated State of Puerto Rico"), is a United Statesterritory located in the northeastern Caribbean. Puerto Rico is an archipelago that includes the main island of Puerto Rico and a number of smaller islands. The capital and largest city is San Juan. The territory does not observe daylight saving time, and its official languages are Spanish, which is predominant, and English. The island's population is approximately 3.4 million.

Puerto Rico's rich history, tropical climate, diverse natural scenery, renowned traditional cuisine and attractive tax incentives make it a popular destination for visitors from around the world. Its location in the Caribbean, combined with centuries of colonization and subsequent migration, has made Puerto Rican culture a distinct melting pot of Amerindian, Spanish, African, and North American influences.

Puerto Rico can be played by three to five players, although an official two player variant also exists. There is an official expansion which adds new buildings that can be swapped in for or used along with those in the original game. In February 2004, Andreas Seyfarth released a separate card game called San Juan based on Puerto Rico and published by the same companies. Puerto Rico is one of the highest rated games on BoardGameGeek.

Gameplay

Each player uses a separate small board with spaces for city buildings, plantations, and resources. Shared between the players are three ships, a trading house, and a supply of resources and doubloons (money).

Exploring Capital of the Bahamas, Nassau by Sailing JAEKA, week #5

During this week we did not sail at all, but we explored the capital of the Bahamas, Nassau. The city is not super big but there are many things to see and discover. In Nassau we met our friends who stopped by just for few day on catamaran. Also we visited gorgeous Fort Charlotte, the 18th century fort built by Lord Dunmore to protect northern part of the island from enemies. And.....my dream came true - a ZOO! I wanted to see flamingos since a very long time and I knew there are flamingos in Nassau's Zoo. We also saw talking parrots and amazing peacocks.
